I bet you can connect 10 more pairs of wheels, 20 pairs even. The question is, why would you?

Without justification (benefit for the albeit minor cost) my team would not do it. If you find that justification, great. I'm just surprised that people would argue "we can, therefore we should". The fact that it is easy doesn't mean that it is smart.
